Pirelli: Williams put too much pressure on Kubica tyre test

Seniai gi visiems aisku kad Kubicos nepaeme del greicio o ne del pinigu. Cia tik fanatai svaigsta ir gyvena savo pasaulyje.

Panasu kad BE isejimas (t.y. pensininko su stazu) duoda automatiskai kelia idejoms

Belieka biski praspirti FIA pensininku brigada

Kiek as pamenu, Bernis visada siulydavo tokias visokias nestandartines idejas, bet visi (iskaitant komandas) tik pasijuokdavo, sakydavo kad cia yra BS ir likdavo prie savo 'standartu'.

Dabar ziuriu daug kalbu vyksta, Liberty sneka, komandos sneka, visi daug ir is visu kampu sneka, paziuresim kuom visa tai baigsis, ypac kai stovyklu ne viena o daug.

Interesting snippet: Ron Dennis is hosting a farewell/thank you party tonight at the Royal Albert Hall. Invitees: everyone he ever worked with at McLaren, plus sundry other senior figures. The entertainment? A bespoke Cirque du Soleil performance. Paying for it? Ron Dennis

Sergey Sirotkin will partner Lance Stroll at WILLIAMS MARTINI RACING for the 2018 Formula One World Championship

Idomu kaip tai pakomentuotu tie 'patikimi saltiniai' kurie aiskino kad su Robertu jau kontraktas pasirasytas, done deal? Sedi dabar tyliai, nieko neraso?

Williams has named Robert Kubica as its reserve and development driver for the 2018 Formula 1 season.

Fair summary

Former McLaren team boss Martin Whitmarsh is to return to a role in Formula 1 after accepting a temporary consultancy position with the FIA, Autosport can reveal.



The FIA's F1 head of communications Matteo Bonciani confirmed: "Whitmarsh has accepted an invitation to work with the FIA on a temporary basis in order to support it in defining financial regulations for fair and sustaina*** competition in the FIA F1 world championship."

Further details about Whitmarsh's appointment and role are expected to be made clear following a Strategy Group meeting between the FIA and teams on Thursday.

McLaren will unveil their car for 2018 next month, the team have confirmed. The wraps will come off the MCL33 on February 23, shortly before the start of pre-season testing in Barcelona.

The new Ferrari will be unveiled online on February 22, four days before the start of pre-season testing at Barcelona.

The as-yet-unnamed car will also be given a 'shakedown' prior to the first day of winter testing, which starts on Monday February 26 at the Circuit de Catalunya.

"We will build at least 80-100 engines and then test them on the bench and take the three or four that have the best reliability and power characteristics," said Cowell. Visa kita turbut eis i Mercedes-AMG Project ONE. Protinga.

Ne, neis niekur, nes varikliai skiriasi. Visa kita bus 'nuostolis'

Naivus Kvailys > aciu uz komplimenta, tinklapis velavo 4 valandas

astralas>> O tu? 4 savaites?

YZF > Bet, kad Project One variklis turėtų būt F1 derived, tai gal blokus paims? Nors kiek atsimenu komandos prištabeliuoja tų variklių demo važiavimams ir panašiai (ir ne tik sau, bet ir klientėms), tad nebūtinai taip tiesiai į nuostolius nurašyčiau, nes po sezono nelabai ir gamina naujų variklių.

Gal kai kurias dalis ir panaudos kazkur, bet kai F1 variklio uzvedimui reikia 10+ zmoniu komandos ir puses valandos pasiruosimo, tai su 'gatvine' masina tai nelabai ka bendro turi.

YZF > Blokas gali būt tas pats, tiesiog reikia tuomet cilindrų tolerancijas didesnes daryt ir šiaip judančių variklio dalių didesnė tolerancija turi būt, nes F1 variklis kambario temperatūroj yra užkaltas, reikia jį ten pašildyt iki kažkokios temperatūros, kad cilindrai galėtų laisvai judėt.
Tai gal ir jo, nelabai ką ten tiesiogiai panaudos :D
Bet, kad jie nebus išmesti, tai esu beveik tikras - bus padėti į sandėlį visokiems demo runs ir panašiai daryt, kur performance nereikia.
BMW naudojo M5 V10 modifikuotą F1 bolido bloką. Na, F1 derived. Tik neatsimenu kuriam tiksliai, man rodos E60 kėbulo. Project One ketina naudot labai artimą F1 variklį, tai, manau, kad jo, naudos tas pačias technologijas, tik pritaikytas gatviniam važiavimui.
Kompų ir žmonių reikia, kad pasiekt aukščiausią galią. Gatvinėj mašinoj ECU turėtų užtekt, visgi Mercedes yra daugiau gatvinių mašinų gamintojas, nei Ferrari, kur FXX reikia technikų komandos.

YZF --->
As with the current Mercedes F1 car, the rear wheels are driven by a turbocharged 1.6-litre petrol V6 with direct injection and, for the sake of longevity, an 11,000rpm red line - dialled down from the 13,500rpm

A strategically tamed WO8 motor, then? Not exactly. AMG calls it a ‘bespoke unit’ that marries elements from WO6, WO7 and WO8. The engineering is exactly the same, though.

Taip, hibridas, ivairios detales is ivairiu F1 modeliu (zinoma perdirbtos kad butu patikimos, bet reklamos tikslais to nesako) ir plius kruva kitu daliu kuriu F1 nera naudojama. Kaip ir sakiau.

http://www.motortrend.com/news/revealed-2019-mercedes-amg-project-one-powertrain/

ne vieta gincytis, bet cia bus f1 variklis. sumazino apsukas, bet ir tai max rida varikliui 30k km. Sutik, tokiu trumpalaikiu dar nieks negamino, net rotoriniai ilgiau sukas. Taip bus adaptaciju, kaip minejau anksciau, bus misraine technologiju, bet siaim modeliui ingridientai - f1 technologijos.

Siūlau grįžti prie diskusijos temos.

Kam dar kažkas neaišku.

"That's going to change," Bratches explained. "We will introduce a direct streaming offer to the fans for both live content and non-live content. The fans will then get access to data directly from the cars. One will be freely availa***, while the other for serious fans is behind a payment barrier." Pagaliau!

"A huge effort has been made to put the power unit on a diet," he wrote in his Quotidiano blog. "One of Mercedes' advantages was the lower weight of the overall package, but Ferrari has been successful in its mission. On the test bench, 1000hp has already been seen at maximum peak power, even if Mercedes has already been there." Leo Turrini said.

Ferrari's new engine is stronger than 1000 horsepower

According to Italian journalist Leo Turrini

Mercedes toks buvo jau užpernai. :)

Nesieke net 1000arkliu pernai joks variklis.

skirkit du dalykus - PU skirta stendui ir PU skirta trasai. Ferrari, panasu, ant stendo pasieke 1000AG, Mercedes gruodzio menesi gyresi, kad arteja prie 1000AG PU, kuris skirtas trasai (with its competition-spec power unit)
